Using a layer of defense to detect against kegerator CO2 leaks…

Placing a CO2 Monitor with alarm inside of your kegerator can serve as another line of defense to protect against co2 leaks and loss. CO2 should not be building up in your kegerator. A CO2 monitor with alarm can alert you of this condition.

This is not a replacement for checking for CO2 leaks using traditional methods, rather a another layer that could save you a trip to swap out a CO2 tank.

Reminder: Time to Clean Beer Lines

About this time every month we post a reminder to clean beer lines. This helps if you clean monthly or everything other month.

Clean kegerator lines are a key part of serving delicious beer. Bacteria and mineral build in lines can cause off flavors, quick loss of head, under-carbonated beer due to rapid co2 loss and lack of legs forming on the inside of your beer glass.

Limited Time Deal on Ball Lock Cleaning Jumpers:

Helps you clean multiple lines at the same time…

Valuebrew is offering a pack of two jumpers and 25 replacement o-rings for $32.97. Coupon code JUMP discounts the combo by a whopping 32%.

Double Jumper Special! < note that you must use this link along with coupon code JUMP to get the deal, the standard product will not get you the discount

Valuebrew’s jumper is unique because of the custom color, food grade o-rings and because … it works with both liquid and ball lock jumpers.

How Often Should You Clean Lines?

The Draught Quality Beer Manual says… every two weeks.

That recommendation is for a commercial operation.  What about homebrewers?  We serve far fewer beer on our kegerators, but on the other hand, we can have been on tap and in lines 24 hours a day and 7 days a week.  Considering all of this, my recommendation is every 1 to 2 months.

Hands on Review: Keg Connection Kegerator Conversion Kits + Limited Time DEAL on Keg Kits

kegconnection.com kegerator review

This review is by Homebrew Finds Contributor Brad Probert.  Brad is an engineer, expert homebrewer and experienced reviewer.  Grab a link to Brad’s website at the end of this review.

Kegerator Conversion Kits from Keg Connection

Most everyone that homebrews, started out by bottling their homebrew. And a lot of people that have done it for a few years eventually move to kegging. If you haven’t made the move yet, you might be trying to decide between buying a pre-configured kegerator or getting a kegerator kit and a fridge or freezer to build yourself something custom. When I first moved to kegging I was too intimidated to go the custom route and bought a pre-configured kegerator. If I had known then how simple a kit was, I definitely would have gone the custom route and got more for my money.

Limited Time Deal:

  • Keg Connection is discounting their entire lineup of keg kit kegging systems by 15%.
  • There are multiple options to choose from. No coupon code is required.
  • HBF Readers Save More! HBF5OFF takes another 5% off.
  • Shipping is a flat fee no matter how much you order to addressed in the contiguous US.

Save on Keg Kits at Keg Connection!  – remember promo code HBF5OFF to get the extra 5% off

I recently scavenged my original 2-tap kegerator for parts when building my upgraded 4-tap keezer. But then I decided I had a use for the kegerator again, so I needed to get a kit to bring it back online. Keg Connection carries a myriad of kits. If I was starting from scratch and customizing my own keg-bearing refrigerator, I could get a kit a kit that had the shanks and everything to put the taps into the door. Or a tower kit to come up out of the top of a small dorm-sized fridge. In my particular case, I still had the 2-tap tower and shanks, so I only needed some of the components. Keg Connection lets you customize to any level with reasonable price adjustments for whatever you add or delete. So I got only what I needed.

The Eva Dry E-333 contains a desiccant material that absorbs moisture.  As this material absorbs moisture it also changes color.  Dark blue means it’s dry and pink means it’s becoming saturated.  The great thing about the Eva-Dry is that the desiccant material is reusable.  The unit contains a built in heater that drives off built up moisture.  When it becomes saturated, plug it in overnight and it’s ready to go again the next day.

I use the larger E-500 in my kegerator.  Check out my extensive Hands on Review of the E-500 including condensation trials.

Magnetic “Drip Tray” + Related Review

InstallGear Magnetic Parts Tray 8" Stainless Steel

InstallGear Magnetic Parts Tray 8″ Stainless Steel

  • This is generally intended as a tool tray, but could potentially be used an an economy drip tray
  • The great thing about this design is that this is magnetic so you can mount it to most freezers or refrigerator based kegerators.
  • Check out my hands on review of a similar tray (but different) from another manufactuer – Hands on Review: 6″ x 4″ Budget Magnetic “Drip Tray”.
  • Note that if this tray is like the one I reviewed, it’s not completely watertight.  You may need to run a bead of silicone around the inside.

Stainless Steel Beer Flow Control Faucet high Flow Beer Faucet Commercial Beer Keg Tap Beer Tap for Home Brewing with Dust Covers and a Handle

More Info



 

Flow control faucets feature a built in flow compensator that allows you to adjust the resistance your faucet is exerting.  That means less tubing and potentially less foaming and wasted beer. The compensation feature also makes it easier to serve higher carbonation beers as you can set the faucet to provide resistance to offset the increased pressure needed to store and serve these beers at higher pressures.  Instead of replacing your beer line with ever increasing lengths of tubing, you simply turn a knob to increase resistance.

Nukatap Gen 1 Stainless Flow Control Faucet Closeout

Nukatap Gen 1 Stainless Flow Control Faucet

Nukatap Gen 1 Stainless Flow Control Faucet

More Info

THESE ARE THE OLDER GEN 1 NUKATAP FLOW CONTROL

The Nukatap Gen 1 Flow Control Faucet features an exclusive Nukashuttle valve that improves laminar flow for reduced foam and turbulence. As in all Nukataps, first pour foam reduction is achieved through a a reduction in thermal mass by the use of molded rather than stainless interior parts. The tap is often the warmest part of the draft system as it protrudes from the beer tower or refrigerator. As a result, it acts like a heat sink and only works well once enough cold beer flows through it to cool the tap body down. By making the inner shuttle out of lightweight food grade plastic, thermal mass is reduced.

Flow control is best for customers who are often switching from one beer style to the next and want maximum flexibility in their draft system (we generally recommend flow control faucets for customers who dispense commercial kegs, not home brew).

The new Nukataps have been manufactured with a 2.5 degree reverse angle. This allows for a wider range of taps handles to be used, in particular, long and/or heavy handles to work perfectly irrespective of the installation conditions.
